Updates

Several updates to the Assignment Tracker 2.0 page were made periodically since the database was introduced:

On February 7, 2008, data files were updated. Some new information was added, most notably personal histories and psychological profiles for each file, names and descriptions of abilities, a psychological evaluation for Hana, and a new file for Matt Neuenberg. The files and passwords are:

The German: C014 (password: TGmgx14r) *Note: This password was found on July 1 at the Heroes Evolutions Walkthrough. No password was originally required to access this profile. The password requirement was added at a later date, but the original link still works.

On June 27, 2008, a link was added to the German's profile which directed users to Devin Patterson's PDA. His last known location was also updated to Berlin, Germany.

Source Code

On March 10, 2008, a message was sent referring to Primatech's Assignment Tracker: http://www.primatechpaper.com/about.php. Going to this page resulted in source code, when it appeared and the page it was on differed depending on the browser used. In Internet Explorer the Assignment Tracker loaded then switched to the source code for http://primatechpaper.com/AT_2.0/assignmentTracker.php, where all the passwords could be found. In Firefox the page immediately showed the source code of http://primatechpaper.com/about.php, an interesting thing found in this code was the line // echo("Login correct, welcome Joe"); . However, as of March 15, 2008, the source code no longer appeared. The title for the Assignment Tracker Login was missing an "s" and the browser title of the Assignment Tracker page was missing the letter "n".

In the personal profile of the German, a link entitled "Evidence" directed users to Devin Patterson's PDA. On 9thwonders.com, Evsdropr posted a hint to the four character password to enter the PDA, asking users to find the code and claiming Devin took some photos using it. Once solved, users can enter the code and view a photo album of 16 pictures.

Three photos appear to contain images Devin shot in the apartment he suspects is the German's: image, image, image

Three photos appear to contain a letter written to the German from his cousin: image, image, image

The August 5, 2008 message from evsdropr provided a link to the Company's interactive map. It showed tips and leads about posthumans around the world, and also allowed users to add their own leads (either fake or real). Red tips denoted Company assignments while green ones denoted confirmed tips about posthumans. Blue leads could be added by anyone with access to the map. (The red and green tips have been confirmed by the Company, the validity of the blue tips cannot be verified.)

For more information about the map (including a listing of all names, abilities, tips, etc.), see assignment tracker map.

The assignment tracker profiles Noah accessed on his computer (The Butterfly Effect) have different numbering systems. For instance, the profile for the German that is accessible to fans is labeled "C014". However, the one Noah accessed is labeled "32-054422". Likewise, Jesse's profile (C012) is number 12-546700 on Noah's computer.

So far there have been four basic evolutionary anomaly classes: Biological, Cerebral, Temporal/Spatial and Elemental. Eric Doyle's tracker profile has 'Physiological' as his ability's evolutionary anomaly class. It is also the first ability to have a name that seems to have been derived straight from a comic book (Puppet Master).

Syn Anders's password is the only one that does not follow the pattern of having the subject's initials as the first two letters of the password. Syn's initials are at the end of the password.

It does not matter which cleared file the user selects as long as the correct password for the desired file is used.

Ian Michaels had an assignment tracker in the form of paper, which is not in the above format, or the format used for Jeremy Greer.

When the profile for Mindy Sprague was released, it contained the wrong ability diagram image. The image was for Elle's electric manipulation (and was even labeled with Elle's profile number). Later, this ability image was changed, though to an image which was still wrong. The new image, which is for Matt's telepathy (and is labeled with Matt's profile number) does not match the ability names on the profile either. Mindy's profile also uses Elle's cranium imaging picture.

When Chris Coolidge's profile was originally released, it used the ability image for Elle's ability. This was changed a few days later.
